Report: Debut Set For AEW Revolution (POSSIBLE SPOILER)
The pay-per-view is tonight in Orlando
A former WWE star has officially signed with All Elite Wrestling, and they could potentially debut at tonight's Revolution pay-per-view in Orlando.
According to a report from Fightful Select, Sw3rve (known as Isaiah Scott in WWE and Shane Strickland most everywhere else) has signed with AEW.
The report claims that Sw3rve is set to debut "imminently", the idea being that he would appear at Revolution. However, the capacity in which he debuts isn't known.
Sw3rve was reportedly in attendance at AEW's concert on Saturday night in Orlando, and one of the songs repeatedly mentioned him.
Two years after debuting in NXT, Sw3rve (as Scott) formed Hit Row with Top Dolla, Ashante Thee Adonis, and B-Fab on the developmental brand. A month later, Sw3rve won the NXT North American title from Bronson Reed (Jonah).
That October, all four members of Hit Row were drafted to the SmackDown brand. However, B-Fab was released the first week of November, and the other three were let go two weeks later.
Since leaving WWE, Sw3rve has wrestled on NJPW Strong, and for PROGRESS, TERMINUS, and DEFY.
